While trying to show a date using strftime, I encountered that sometimes I got it in English and sometimes in Spanish. Looking for the reason, I found out setlocale call sometimes returns false instead of the locale (which is available) I was trying to set, es_ES. I wrote a test code to try to set other Spanish locales if the previews attempts failed. Any clue on why is this happening?
